This has spoilers so don't read if you haven't seen the event.
I just want to start by saying that ufc83 was a bad event and i was very annoyed by it.
While there was something to be excited about there wasn't really any big names and half the fights included undertrained vaginas.
Let me first say that i was behind serra. I'm a huge fan of his but even then i still picked gsp to beat him. GSP is just so dominant in the ground. Overall for all ground tactics he's top #3 easy. The only thing that i haven't seen from him is the ability to fight in later rounds. But with his skill does it matter? if he can finish in 1-2 rounds who cares if he can't go five. GSP is a monster and i hope after he beats fitch that somehow we could get him to fight jake shields and/or carlos condit. I'd love to see those fights!
Kalib starns is a huge pussy. I was wrong about the fight, i said he would have verbally submitted in round 3, he proved me wrong and went the distance. He almost got caught in the blind hammerfist in the 3rd round but thankfully he was able to avoid them. Nate is a hero now cuz of that shit and kalib should be set on fire.
Maia is a wizard. The end.
I really want to see bigping more at 185, he looked really good and explosive (unlike swick going from 185 to 170) but i need to see him against someone who isn't a huge idiot before i can start calling him a top 185 contender.
I really wasn't a huge fan of the card, i hope that ufc 84 bj vs sherk/machida vs tito/jardine vs wandy changes that. Obviously it has the one fight that i've been wanting to see more then anything (bj/sherk) I will post my thoughts as it gets closer.
OH and i never really talk about poker but i'm going to start playing more omaha and i'm going to post stats about it, i really want to learn the game because i think there is money to be made there.

sherk is unbeatable,, kinda boring in the sence that all his fights go the distance but hes MEGA solid and almost unexploitable |

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same | |

I agree the card wasn't too exciting on paper but it was worth it to see GSP win. No idea what Kalib's explanation is for his performance but safe to say you will never see him in the UFC again. I liked the crowd at the Bell Centre, no random booing cause it went to the ground, it was a pretty mannered crowd overall. I mean you expect them to cheer a Canadian boy but Kalib deserved every single boo. |

If Penn is in shape i think he'll beat Sherk... rear naked choke in the 2nd round. Should be a good fight though.. sherk can take alot of punishment, and obviously hes insanely strong. |

while you might be correct does that mean you're picking bj to beat sherk? |

well it depends on BJs form.
But the BJ that fought vs GSP at UFC 58 will probably be able to finish sherk before end of 2nd round.
Well to be honest i dont like sherk that much
i hope BJ wins and i am confident that he could win this fight |

In the UFC promo for the fight, Sherk said that they took away his title for doing nothing wrong. Didn't he fail a drug test after the Franca fight (and incidently Franca failed a drug test too) and hence got his title stripped and then got suspended for a period of time. What is this about him saying otherwise? |
